Descripción del proveedor

Challenge Island is a one-of-a-kind enrichment program on the cutting edge of STEAM education and 21st Century Learning. Our goal is to create collaborative learning experiences using a highly engaging curriculum that simultaneously addresses the needs of both the creative, playful child of today and the globally successful adult of the future. Our high interest, curriculum uniquely intertwines STEAM, English Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies concepts into one action packed experience for elementary and middle school students. The Challenge Island curriculum is unique because the students work together in STEAM Teams to complete Challenges that demonstrate one or more STEAM concepts. The hands-on, project-based learning opportunities made available in Challenge Island ignite curiosity and spark learning by letting the students experiment in real-world situations, even for students who do not think of themselves as “math and science kids.” While working in their STEAM Teams to solve the challenges, the students apply engineering principles, Understand, Brainstorm, Build, Test, Improve, Retest, Improve Again, and Share. As a result, the students learn about communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, and public speaking. When kids participate in Challenge Island programs, they are preparing for what lies ahead and ensuring that they will be equipped to handle the problems of the future.
